Chapter 288 Countermeasures
"Stop! Password!" A voice came from the darkness.

A dozen or so black shadows staggered one by one, startled, and did not dodge the bird's voice: "Are you blind? I just came out of the mountain. What password do you want?"

The whistle at the entrance of the village heard the bird's voice, and quickly lowered the muzzle of the gun to the bird's voice: "Ah, you are the one who came back? What's the matter with the gunshot over there?"

The black shadow stepped forward slowly, dejected, and when the sergeant stepped forward, he gave the sentry a big mouth: "Are you laughing at us?"

The devil sentinel was stunned: He was slapped for no reason, did he say something wrong?

Juncao rubbed his aching hand: "How many of you are here?"

"There is a squadron of Imperial Warriors in the village, plus a company of the Imperial Association Army. Didn't your radio say that there is a squadron in the vanguard?" The sentinel who was beaten hurriedly answered cautiously.

Crack, another beautiful mouth was loud, the sentinel was beaten dizzy, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, he was finally confused, what did he say wrong?

"How many of us do you need to know?"

The sentinel still didn't understand where he was wrong, so he quickly replied: "Yes."

"Take us into the village immediately!"

The sentinel stopped opening his mouth, turned around and led the gang into the village, secretly licking blood into his mouth.

Of course, the vanguard squadron didn't have a radio station, and the pigeons released were roasted and eaten by Balu.

The second lieutenant, who had received the order from the radio station to lead the supply team, ignored the gunshots at all. Guns were fired everywhere in the plain during this time, so he didn't bother to care.

After being woken up, he put on his military uniform and rubbed his eyes: "You are finally here, now, this place is for you!"

"No, we encountered an ambush on the way back, and we need support!" Juncao, the devil, avoided talking about his private escape.

The second lieutenant didn't even hesitate: "Impossible, one of your squadrons was attacked, and most of us are working as heavy soldiers, so we can't do reinforcements."

"The Tubalu who ambushed us were very despicable. They set up traps in the village. Most of them used automatic short guns. In the village, the warriors' weapons were limited, so we lost a lot!"

"That's your problem. We have to go back overnight to report. Please go through the handover procedures immediately."

"You cowards, if you are in the plains, the Eighth Route Army is not our opponent. Now, I need your reinforcements, please." Sergeant Cao is very sure that even if the Eighth Route Army has a machine gun, it is no match for a well-trained warrior on the plain. , Think carefully on the way to escape.

"It's a big loss? Do you mean you just come back? If that's the case, you should kill yourself by caesarean section!"

"It's not your turn to care about this, I want you to reinforce immediately." Sergeant Cao said with a dark face.

"How far is the distance? How many people are there!" The second lieutenant was reluctant in his heart. Even though his rank was higher, the combat troops were not the same as the logistics troops. Otherwise, he could have slapped the sergeant several times before speaking.

"More than 30 miles, this land is very desolate. I haven't even had a sip of water. It's very urgent. Now reinforcements are coming. If you hurry, you can arrive in three hours at most."

Sergeant Cao didn't lie, two hours of rapid march in broad daylight would be fine, but in the dark, three hours would be possible, but he ignored that there were security forces in the team!
The sergeant didn't want to rest comfortably in the village because he didn't dare.

The second lieutenant had a dark face, and reluctantly pulled out the map. Under the lantern, he slid his fingers westward on the map and stopped at Xiaowang Village. After thinking about it for a while, he calculated the ratio. It seemed that there were only about thirty people. inside.

The second lieutenant was a little puzzled: "Why do I feel that this is a problem? How can a combat squadron be beaten by the Eighth Route to leave you alone, even if I go, plus those useless security forces, do you think it is useful?"

Sergeant Cao looked grim, and leaned over to look at the map: "We were ambushed and surrounded by the Eighth Route Army to fight in the village. The Eighth Route Army repaired the fortifications in advance, and their combat effectiveness has not become stronger. We don't need to enter the village now."

Speaking of entering the village, the sergeant couldn't help but shudder again.

"What do you mean, your squadron is basically wiped out? And then let our squadron of logistics and logistics troops bring useless imperial alliance troops to reinforce?" The second lieutenant was very helpless. His squadron didn't have all of them dispatched, but they encountered this shit. .

"If you think there is a problem, please immediately send someone to ride back to the mayor of the town to call for more troops to reinforce! Please."

Luo Fugui grabbed the water bottle, raised his neck and gulped a few sips of water, carefully covered it, and there was no gritty feeling on his dusty lips: "Are they really replenishing the regiment?"

Tang Dagou pressed a bullet bridge clip into the magazine, pushed the bolt on with a bang, and returned the gun to Ba Lu in front of him: "How many people are there behind you?"

The soldiers finally confirmed that the opponent was really the Ninth Company of the Independent Regiment: "I'll go back and inform them that we are in one platoon, half of the casualties!"

After speaking, he turned and ran towards the tense team in the dark.

"Fox, I think they should be the team to support the cadres entering the mountain!" The girl held up the binoculars, watching the soldier run away and disappear under the starlight in the dark night, bored.

The telescope was put into the leather case, and the map was taken out to open it. Luo Fugui next to him immediately turned on the flashlight.

Hu Yi frowned and squatted on the top of the slope, while looking at the map, he answered the girl's question in a calm tone: "The team of cadres has already entered the mountain, and they probably ran into the gang of devils who escaped in the evening."

The girl was stunned for a while: "Then, we have nothing to do now, so it's time to go back."

"It's fine, they seem to have suffered a lot of casualties, let's go together when the people behind them come up."

Hu Yi looked up at the platoon leader Wang who ran over first, and wanted to hear their battle process.

Both sides shook hands politely.

Platoon Leader Wang was very happy to meet Jiulian, the benefactor of the legendary supplementary regiment, and briefly explained the process.

Hu Yi frowned: "Are you being chased by three devils?"

"I didn't expect the devils to be so powerful in night battles. I thought the devils had a squad."

"Okay, the devils have run away, and rescuers will definitely be brought in, but they will have to wait until midnight at the soonest. There are security forces in the north, and a large army of devils in the west will come out at some point. It's not safe here."

"Well, Captain Hu, do you have health workers in your team?" Platoon Leader Wang asked.

Hu Yi couldn't help asking curiously: "Didn't you all bandage the wounded soldiers?"

"No, there is an important person in our team. Before we came out, the political commissar repeatedly told us to protect her, but I didn't expect that she was also injured. Hey, I didn't complete the task." Platoon Leader Wang looked frustrated.

Hu Yi's eyes fell on the darkness behind Platoon Leader Wang again. There was a long row of stretchers, torches were shaking, and the lightly wounded were still carrying stretchers.

"Half Immortal, hurry up and help!"

There was a faint sound of horseshoes in the west.

From a distance, I watched people lighting torches and making noise.

"Extinguish the torches and hide!" Although most of the people who came came from our own people, it was probably nothing good.

"Company Commander Hu, the situation is not good. On our way back, we found a large number of devils in the west. It is estimated that the devils from the mountains have arrived." Chen Chong jumped off his horse and saluted to report.

"How many devils are there? Where are Ma Liang and the others?" Hu Yi was surprised that it was Chen Chong who came.

"I don't know, the devil is lighting a torch, he can't see the end, and he doesn't count. The devil is now moving forward on the southern road. Ma Liang and the others are going south first."

"Most of the devils are coming, the marching speed is definitely not fast." Hu Yi withdrew his gaze from the map: "Order: Everyone is ready to set off immediately, turn to the south, and cross the road out of the mountain before the devils."

"Can't we hide here and wait for the devils to leave before leaving?" Platoon leader Wang had too many wounded people, and he was worried that he might not be able to keep up with the quick march.

"We set up an ambush by the devils in the afternoon. The devils got the news and suffered such a big loss. They will definitely search northward on a large scale. It is only safe to go to the south of the devils." Hu Yi calmly explained his analysis.

Banxian ran back from below the slope: "That Chief Hu, Director Su seems to be on a stretcher."

"What? Which officer Su?" Hu Yi was a little dazed, thinking he had heard wrong, and asked subconsciously.

Banxian was surprised: "Uh, I also heard from Su Qing, the political worker of the independent regiment and the instructor of our Ninth Company."

Hu Yi froze on the spot.

It just so happened that Luo Fugui had a few idlers around, and they usually like to get close to Hu Yishen to learn from others. Even when they saw ants fighting, they wanted to join in the fun. When they heard the half-immortal talking, their eyes widened, and they all jumped together. Look at Hu Yi.

Hey, I didn't expect that after Commander Hu Dalian came to his senses, he ran away like the wind with a bang and disappeared without a trace.

All the people's jaws dropped, they all came back to their senses, and ran into the darkness, regardless of the company commander's command to march.

The speed at which Jiulian disappeared left Platoon Leader Wang dumbfounded. Is this Jiulian a rabbit?
When I came back to my senses, I knew that Su Qing was transferred from the independent regiment, but I didn't expect that Su Qing was still an instructor in Jiulian.

It seems that Wang Peng's company also has a squad leader in the Ninth Company of the Independent Regiment. I can't remember what his surname is. Everyone in the regiment knows that Lao Qin is an instructor in the Ninth Company. I heard that he really married a good wife. , What kind of mess was he thinking, he quickly twitched his mouth and withdrew his thoughts.

Didn't it mean that the devils from the west are coming up, why don't they care about it?

Platoon Leader Wang felt that the situation was not good, and Jiulian finally left a reliable one behind, and quickly suggested to Luo Fugui who stayed beside him: "We have to retreat quickly, don't you think?"

In the dark night, it is impossible for the devils to garrison and rest. They will definitely march overnight. It is not suitable to march after the sun rises during the day, so they will find a place to rest.

"Your grandma is in a hurry, let Boss Hu calm down first!" Luo Fugui didn't follow, he was a little worried about Su Qing's appearance, because he had a lot of money on him now, so he had to think of a countermeasure first.

The relationship between Hu Yi and Su Qing, in the independent regiment, apart from the political commissar, he is the only one who knows the most. They are so cold and come together again this time. Maybe it will be a lot cooler on a hot day.

What Platoon Leader Wang didn't even expect was that the orderly riding a horse in front of him was the "platoon leader" who married into the Ninth Company of their supplementary regiment!
